Love the stats posted in MF's email, mind boggling. I especially liked the reminder to me to log in today. Thanks, but like many here, reminder not required!!!

2003? I think I can just about remember 2003....!

Good job. I probably "know" more people here than I do IRL. I also learn a lot about tech stuff, not being truly geeky in the network engineer/IT/mobile network sort of way that many here are. One of my key learning experiences is the For Sale thread, where I see a post that says "For Sale: Uber Tech Widget Carbon 9777884444 techno-whizz (note - A shape not G shape)" or some such and then have to run and look up what is actually being sold, because I never heard of one...!

It's a great place to find answers to all manner of things; a sort of living Wiki mastermind Borg Collective.

Like these from today?

Batman:

If only my memory was good enough to recall why I first joined/what my first post was about. Hmm ...

If you go into your profile you can see every post you ever made.. looks like it was to ask about Woosh speeds in Dunedin for your brothers.

I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad, a Quic user, and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. If you use my Quic signup you can also use the code R570394EKGIZ8 for free setup. Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.

Let me add my congratulations. Like many I’m a daily visitor, and I’ve found the community to be great. Must get along to one of the IRL pizza nights one day.

Looking at my profile, I realised that next week is my 10year anniversary, meaning I have been here for 20% of my life (the week after is that significant birthday :/)

Also congrats to all and especially to freitasm on reaching this milestone. I passed my 10th anniversary several months ago. Geekzone has also become a daily habit for me. Don't know what I would do without it.

Well done team

One of my first posts was discussing the speed increases on TelstraClear's new 10mbps plans (in 2007). Fast forward 10 years, and I was on their 1000mbps plan...
